CHARLESTON, November 2i.-For sew
eral days after the adjournment Of the
Masonic Grand Lodge, Gen. Flick, Wesley
Atkinson and Col. McLane, of Putnam,
remained about town. The shining local
lights in the Republican camp of Kanawha
together with more influential labor lights
were frequent callers upon these prominent
politicians. Even the famous Steele Haw-
kins, who so badly leaked" that his place
in the high local councils was in jeopardy,
during that memorable Republican cock
loft seance at Parkersburg year or so ago,
was constant visitor both day and
night to the iat-man- -Of-the-East apart
ments, and those of the man of great
wealth OF the Kanawha.
did not strike Steele to see if he was
leaking little, but the fact has gained
general circulation that Atkinson and
Flick fixed matters mp so that the wealthy
man OF the Kanawha could be the nom
inee OF their party for Governor. 1t is not
80 much Col. McI.ane they want as it is
his munitions Of war. Atkinson has said
that his party don't care about the State
ticket, as it is q little too much to reach
for this time, but they
DO WANT THE LEGISLATURE,
and to that end heaven and earth will he
moved in the next campaign.
In this connection it may as well be an
nounced that the Republicans have about
completed arrangements for fusing with
the Labor party on the State ticket. This
announcement is hardly to he wondered ut
since Bill Dave GOshOrn, the leading
Observation-Disclosures man in this valley, has
been hObnObbing with the gentleman above
named. OF course this means defeat to the
Democracy in this section unless some de-
cisiye steps are taken by the Democrats to
break up the combination.
With theState tiCketamong the Repuhli-
cans rs side issue, and the Legislature
and SenatOrship ~ the main show, the
question naturally arises: who is To be the
beneficiary? The common belief that Con
is the man who will make the race is not
cOmbatted by anyone. All know that
HE HAS AMBITION;
that he has his own money and that Of his
uncle'S, aud is on the inside with the
national party. With this he will buy
delegations and elect them in his own in-
terest, and sell ont his friends when neces-
sary. This part Of the programme was
probably not discussed by Atkinson. Flick,
ct al. Ii is we'll known Atkinson is
Colts striker. Gen. Flick, however will
not be sleeping while the above programme,
as far as the Senatorship il concerned, is
being carried out. lie has not forgotten
Colts treatment last year. Tie could see
with half an eye the attempt to hook him
with the gubernatOTIal nomination. Which
was kind. lie thought his good friend
McIane could better stand up under de
feat than himself So the GOvernorship
goes TO Putnam county. We shall see
whether. in the event OF the enemy carry
ing the Legislature, the Senator will come
from Harrison Or Berkeley.

He Will Play Next Year-But Where VIII

ST. LOUIS. November 24.-Wheu the
wise man said "All lien are liars" he
must have had some experience with base
ball managers and base ball players. PeO-
pie who have tried TO obtain information
from Chris Won der Abe or Bob Carruthers
agree that the wise man said the correct
thing. So much has been printed in pa
pers here and elsewhere and 80 much has
been said and contradicted that cranks and
lovers of base ball are universally afflicted
with big disgust, or mystitied as to what
had been done or what is being done
Caruthers' talk about going into business
was all bluff ut its best, and the great
pitcher himself has laid aside his thin
mask, and now acknowledges that he was
talking to conceal his thoughts. lie is in
the city yet, and is watching events with
an eye wide open and an ear kcenly alert
to his own interests.
He says that he il opposed to playing in
Brooklyn unless Byrne comes to the front
with the right amount of salary. He much
prefers playing with Cincinnati, and Pres
ident Stern is quite anxious to secure him,
and will pay almost as niuch as anybody
body for his release.
IL do not propose to stand by" said
Bobby" TO reporter, "and let the base
ball managers buy and sell me without
saying word, Pm not that kind of man.
If any money is to he made ont of me or
my value as player OF base ball, pro-
pose to get some Of it myself. I'm in the
market, and the man who bids highest for

RIDDLEBERGER TALKS.
The IrrepressibIe Says Malone is p Dead
Dead Weight.

Dead Weight.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., November "a
Whatever else Senator Riddleberger did in
Congress ne always had a good word to
saw for Ireland, and his course there and
elsewhere got him the honor Of an invita-
tion to address the Clan-Na.Gael and
United Irish Societies at Philadelphia this
week. He stopped here briefly to-day on
his way to the Quaker City, and had the
following 20 say in answer to inquiries
about the Virginia election:
:'Fhe result in Virginia wasno surprise to
me. We were licked fair an square. 1t
was Malone and his methods that defeat
ed the Republicans. His management of
the canvass and his abandonment OF the
only issues that we could have won with
made it impossible for the Republicans to
reply to the Democratic stump speakers.
So far as know, there was no fraud what
ever at the polls, as has been charged, and
no one seriously believes the sensational
reports. The charges printed by certain
papers that we were cheated and counted
out are the worst kind of rot. Why, one
OF our own men was elected by barely ten
majority. If the Democrats wanted to
count us out how easy it would have been
to wipe away the ten votes"
"Was the election reimbursement of the
administration"
IL think not. There are plenty Of Vir-
ginia Democrats opposed to Cleveland.
Whenever Republican is discovered in
office the Virginia Democrats damn the
Presidents civil service policy most grace
fully. The Democrats cannot swallow
civil service. 1t goes against them. They
will never be satisfied with it. They sup
port the President in everything else. |
believe Virginia will send solid Cleve-
land delegation to the National COnven-
ton, and that Cleveland will be renOmin-
ated. Virginia will support him, because
she believes he is the only Democrat that
can be elected"
do you know any one who could carry
Virginia rs against Cleveland ~
II seriously think that, with proper
management, Blaine could wrest the State
from the Democracy. He would have
done it in 1854 but tor the ambition OF
William Malone. Blaine can have the
nomination if he wants it.
Talking of his successor theSenator said
the indications pointed TO Mr.. Barbour,
but there were so many silent aspirants in
the field that it would be almost impossi-
Bile to tell who would succeed him. Bar
bour, he said, was shrewd politician, but
a mighty poor speaker He was not the
best man the Democrats could send. II
the Senatorship was given to Barbour it
wOuld be rendered TO him out of graft
tude"
In closing his remarks about the Senate
he said, with emphasis: "a poor man has
no more right TO he in the United States
Senate than an iceberg has in hi or in

SCUMIDT'S REILLY.

Cancerous IufiItrstion Has Existed from
the BEGINNING la the Princes Throat.
HEEI N, November - De. Schmidt,
in Il report To the Medical Society of Ber-
In, On the case OF the Crown Prince, says:
DR.. Gerhardt was first consulted March
6. Atterward, by two operations he re-
moved a tumor from the left vocal cord.
lie then intimated 10 DR. Wagner and Dr.
Orth, of L IS, his fears that cancer existed
The soiourn of the Crown Prince at Ems
was considered merely probationary, the
object heing to ascertain whether the
swelling was benign or malignant. On
June % Dr. Landgrai discovered swell
ing in the larnyx. On July another
swelling was observed situated on the pos
terror wall of the larnyx, with a strong
Outgrowth toward the left vocal cord. On
August : DIR. Mackenzie undertook TO
eradicate the swelling. After his opera
tions the Crown Prince went TO Braemar.
The German doctors, for whom no accom-
mediation was provided at Braemar, were
not permitted TO make a further eXamina-
ton until August %. The left vocal cord
then showed several pointed eYCresenceS
which DIR. Mackenzie assumed to he the
result of his operations On September |
the German doctors left.
In conclusion DR.. Schmidt declared that
"CancerOus utilization has existed from
the very beginning in the left vocal chord.
This caused irritation, which produced the
papillary growthS OH the cord About the
removal of these the public is already fully
informed"
A dispatch from san Reno says that the
Crown Princes voice continues very hoarse
DIR. Bramann takes no part in the medical
treatment of the patient, which is still en-
trusted TO DR.. Howell. Dr.. Bramann, how

operators aud miners along the MonOn-

of rise in the rivers sufficient
to allow the shipping OF to the West
of the eight or ten million bushels of coal
lying in the harbor and pools. There have
been no shipments to the lower ports since
last Juus and the mines have been closed
on account of s'arcity of craft, all the
